Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal dealt only with the claimant's unfair dismissal complaint. It recorded that Mrs. A Gajre had been employed by Hope Fostering Services Limited for less than two years, and noted that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires at least two years' service before a claimant can bring an unfair dismissal complaint.
The tribunal found that the claimant was therefore not entitled to pursue the unfair dismissal claim. It also recorded that the claimant agreed the tribunal could not deal with that complaint.
Accordingly, the complaint of unfair dismissal was struck out. The judgment states that the claimant's other complaints were not affected by this decision.

How we got this data
Case essentials (reference, date, judge, venue, country, claim categories) are extracted from the structured metadata gov.uk publishes alongside each decision. Parties and monetary figures are extracted from the judgment PDF text. Key findings and per-claim outcomes require a second extraction pass that is not yet complete for this case — until then, the primary source linked above is the authoritative record.
